1 And Samuel will say to all Israel, Behold, I heard to your voice, to all that ye said to me, and I will make a king over you.

2 And now, behold, the king going before you: and I grew old and I was gray-headed; and my sons, behold them with you: and I went before you from my youth even to this day.

3 Behold me: answer against me before Jehovah and before his Messiah, whose ox did I take? or whose ass did I take? and whom did I oppress? whom did I vex? and from whose hand did I take a ransom and hidden mine eyes with it? and I will turn back to you.

4 And they will say, Thou didst not oppress us, and thou didst not vex us, and thou didst not take any thing from man's hand.
